University of Dayton

There are as many things to do as there are reasons to do them.

There isn't a single University of Dayton experience. In fact, each of us has a different version of life as a Flyer. And with the resources available through Student Life and Kennedy Union, you can tailor your time here to focus on your interests - and expand them.

Join one of our officially recognized student organizations. Enjoy a theatrical production, guest lecture, dance ensemble or musical recital in Boll Theatre. Bowl a few games in the Hangar. Attend fun, rewarding (and often, free) alcohol-free weekend programs throughout the year.

Ask not what bowling and milkshakes can do for you. Ask what you can do for bowling and milkshakes.

Whether you have a club meeting in one of the KU meeting rooms, are hoping to score concert tickets to a show downtown or just want to relax with friends and bowl a few games at the Hangar, KU is where it's at.

The John F. Kennedy Memorial Union offers comfortable surroundings and a variety of services for the University community. Lounges provide space for discussion, studying and socializing. Grab a snack from the Galley before you challenge your roommate to a game of foosball, pool or bowling. Inside KU, you'll also find the offices for a variety of student organizations, the commuter lounge, the campus information center, the Box Office, a dining hall and an on-campus travel agency.

More than 200 ways to fill your calendar.

If you're one of those students who gets involved in every club, we wish you luck.

Run for student government offices. Become the broadcast news anchor on Flyer TV. Join Habitat for Humanity. Volunteer at an elementary school. Build — and race — a concrete canoe. With more than 200 student organizations on campus, you'll discover an activity to match your passions and talents. You might even start your own club.

We're proud to be Greek.

Leaders of our peers.  Public servants for social change.  Scholars in pursuit of excellence.  Innovators in networking.  Forerunners in building everlasting bonds.

Ask any of our students why they are proud to be part of a values-based Greek letter fraternity or sorority, and their responses are as spirited as they are impressive. We’re pleased to showcase our Greek community, knowing there is a home for you in one of our organizations.  

Make your voice heard.

Hone your leadership skills through the Student Government Association.The Student Government Association serves as a forum to address issues that impact students, resolves common student problems, creates new policies and protects student rights.

By being a voice for your peers, you'll make an impact on the future of the University.

You may not live here, but it's still your home.

To help campus feel more like your home away from home, we offer a variety of services and tips for commuter students. Use the Commuter Lounge to relax, socialize or study between classes. Put money on your Flyer Express card for an easy way to grab a meal — or late afternoon snack.

Attend events hosted by Commuters on Campus, a student-run organization, and get to know other commuter students to feel at home on campus.  Want to be even more involved? Campaign for Commuter Senator seat in the Student Government Association.
